Modeling Endogenous Treatment Eects with Heterogeneity: A Bayesian Nonparametric Approach

This dissertation explores the estimation of endogenous treatment effects in the presence of heterogeneous responses. A Bayesian Nonparametric approach is taken to model the heterogeneity in treatment effects. Specifically, I adopt the Dirichlet Process Mixture (DPM) model to capture the heterogenei...
